[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks for the responses! How likely is it to get in as an out-of-boundary student?[/quote] It really is luck with the lottery. Its hard to guess if its a real lottery or kids are specifically chosen by MCPS. Not a huge number of out of bounds get in.[/quote] Really? I've read that something like 25% of the students are out-of-boundary. Parkland is more competitive for the lottery. I think when parents are looking for "magnets" Parkland offers the type of program they're seeking. Since Loiederman is magnet isn't an academic subject, it doesn't jump out to families specifically looking for a magnet program. Transportation isn't offered, so there's really no reason for MCPS to pick and choose who wins the lottery. The schools aren't being balanced for demographics.[/quote] There is no way 25% are out of boundaries. Lots of families want Loiederman for the music/arts programs.[/quote]
